The Orphan wisdom School is one of the most important undertakings one might ever do for themselves. Were one to go merely for the chance of learning new ways to consider palliative care in this day and age, that would be enough for the “price of tuition” alone. What you will get is a chance to approach what it’s like to be an authentic human in a time when being unconsciousness pays so many (empty) dividends. You will learn to stretch your learning bones towards an understanding of our language and cultural origins that could change everything about the way you view the world and yourself.
